NEW YORK — CARRYING THE CASH. A former bank official said Monday that he was called ''the satchel man'' for Imelda Marcos because he carried $100,000 cash for her expenses during the funeral of South Korean President Park Chung Hee in 1979. Oscar ''Oca'' Carino, who managed the Philippine National Bank's New York branch from 1973 to 1984, said he was asked to go along with Marcos on the trip by her personal secretary. In earlier testimony, Carino told of providing the former Philippine first lady with millions of dollars from the government-owned bank. Marcos, 60, has pleaded not guilty to charges of racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, mail fraud and obstruction of justice.
